@Letty,
Billy Vaughn sold millions of records. Today he seems pretty much forgotten.

I like all of Matt Monroe's songs.

@edgarblythe,
Oh, THAT Vaughn. Love La Paloma, Texas, and Wheels as well.

Well, folks, we're all a littl blue over the state of the economy in America, and I see Congress passed the bail out bill(no golden parachutes for the big wigs, however)

Here's my goodnight song by Nat, and perhaps things will look better tomorrow.

Goodnight to all of you everywhere.

From Letty with love and hope

@edgarblythe,
Good morning, WA2K radio audience.

What a great song, edgar, and I do believe sometimes that it IS a Barnum and Bailey world. Incidentally, folks, P.T. Barnum never said, "There's a sucker born every minute." His competitor did.

Hard to believe that Mitzi Gaynor is still with us, but her birthday is today, so let's hear a shocking song by her, y'all.

@Letty,
You must be referring to business and government with that song, letty.

@Letty,
Beautiful day in the making. I intend to build a new gate to the back yard as well as make sure certain unseen parts of my home did not get mold on them from the 11 inches of rain we had.

@alex240101,
edgar knows that we all love Bob Dylan, right?

Welcome back, alex, and I love that song by the Diamond man. I think it was inspired by Caroline Kennedy.

Speaking of mold, a little bit of poison often produces healing.

The discovery of penicillin was ranked as the most important discovery of the millennium when the year 2000 was approaching by at least 3 large Swedish magazines.It is impossible to know how many lives have been saved by this discovery, but some of these magazines placed their estimate near 200 million lives.

Alexander Flemming.

And to think it all started with mold, folks.

This is for alex and Alexander. Razz

@Letty,
I didn't know about Mouldy Dough. Highly unusual, at least in the circles I move in.

@edgarblythe,
Me neither, edgar, but I was looking for a song to match Flemming, and as luck would have it, our alex as well.

Info on the band, folks:

Lieutenant Pigeon was a British musical group popular in the early 1970s. A spin-off from an experimental music band Stavely Makepeace. It was fronted by Rob Woodward. The group's sound was dominated by a heavy ragtime-style piano played by Woodward's mother, Hilda.
Lieutenant Pigeon achieved two UK hits: "Mouldy Old Dough", written by Rob Woodward with bandmate Nigel Fletcher, reached number one in 1972, followed by "Desperate Dan" (number 17 in 1973) Both tracks were largely instrumental, with the titles providing virtually the only lyrics. "Mouldy Old Dough" (the title being an adaptation of the 1920s jazz phrase, "vo-de-o-do") became the second biggest selling UK single of the year, behind The Band of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards' bagpipe version of "Amazing Grace".
Lieutenant Pigeon scored a further hit, in the autumn of 1974, when it reached number 3 in the Australian charts with a cover version of "I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen".
Subsequent UK releases, such as "Red River Rock", a version of the Johnny and the Hurricanes classic of 1959, fell on deaf ears.

Here's their version of I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen. Odd, right?

@Letty,
I remember Mouldy Old Dough very well! I could never make out any words - being only ten years old. It was quite popular in Germany. Nice trip down memory lane, Letty!

How do you say, "You Are Most Welcome" in German, Urs? <smiles>

This one has been done before, folks, but we'll dedicate it to our Urs.

@Letty,
Hey Letty, you would say something like 'es war mir ein großes Vergnügen.'

Thank you for Bruce. I just got home - it's around 1.30 am, I am tired, had some wine with friends and a good evening. Bruce is a great goodnight song for me!
Letty

Letty was inspired by Osso's dog thread to play this one, folks.

Back later with my goodnight song, folks.
